Babble babble

Today is our last full day here at the resort and I will greatly miss the water and sunshine. Nothing quite as serene as being by the water, listening to the waves, and feeling the sand beneath the toes. It has also been fun to be here and listen to all the languages spoken. There are many here from Russia, Argentina, Poland, France, Germany...and the list goes on. I have taken many languages along the way and can piece together many conversations but it is interesting to hear all of them in one location. It does truly start to blend together and sound like babble. The languages are so diverse and creative. However, there is always that barrier.

I could go back and tell you about the Tower of Babel but I know you can do that on your own. It is interesting how pride separated us then and really is what keeps nations pit against each other even today. We will always be in God's way if we continue to put ourselves first.
Proverbs 16:18

 18 Pride goes before destruction,
   a haughty spirit before a fall.


Where are you letting pride get in the way of being closer to God?
